Match Brentford fc vs TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR/ Sun 13th 14:00

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Ok. I completely disagree and want a lot more out my 60m centre-forward.

Opinions init.
I think more will come. He's doing what is asked of him.

Also think he did well on one attack to turn his defender near the halfway line who had to foul him to stop him being away.

Want him to get a couple so people can move on.

Their penalty area was constantly packed. Brentford get plaudits but they offered nothing second half. If they had scored towards the end it would have been a mugging.
 
I agree. Skipp is not an 8. I would bring in GLC.

Could we play two up top? Son and Rich. Take out Kulu. Put in GLC. Take out Skipp. Put in Sarr.
Yes I prefer that as the wingers really arnt playing like wingers. Play Sarr for skip gio for kulu behind front two. Then you can play porro at rb so we have pace on both sides. Sarr is athletic enough to cover the right unlike skipp. Who seems to think since his an 8 he doesn’t need to get back. Compare him with madd who’s also playing as an 8. He gets around the pitch much more.

Brentford created more than us first half and we created more than them second half. Draw was a very fair result, they missed an open goal.
 
We're a team in transition. We played fucking well with a load of positives.

Brentford will take points off most teams. Solid point.
 
1. Bissouma
2. Maddison
3. Udogie
4. VDV

The 4 real standouts for me. Really impressed by all four. I still think it's a shame we weren't in for a Diaby as from what I saw vs. Newcastle he looked like he'd suit an Ange team, a lot more electric and active than Kulusevski.
For a minute there I thought that was your scapegoat list! 😜

At least that was how I initially perceived it...

What the fuck was Conte thinking, if only he'd played Bissouma a bit more last season.
Did you watch today's Game? If Conté had Played Bassouma with Dier and Sanchez as CBs, he might as well have committed suicide. Our big problem for the past 4 seasons are our CBs. If Ange had played Dier and Sanchez today it would have been 5-2. VdV coming back is a must.
 
Think we cant afford to have Richarlison and Son in games when teams park the bus like today. Both offer close to nothing creativity wise.
Good point. I hope Ange can show some tactical flexibility. Today he didn’t just did like for like and didn’t try anything different. Like I said try kulu on the left maybe? Son down the middle. Put Gio on instead of kulu or rich. Try Solomon instead of kulu. Yet he just went like for like almost like cunte. We could have won that gane with a bit more nous as we didn’t have the pace to beat them but he didn’t really do anything. Could have tried porro as well. Bit disappointed tbh in himfir not being braver. Brentford let us have the ball we did next to nothing with it in the 2nd half.
